Beautiful period house with wonderful garden in the heart of a desirable village.
An outstanding period house thought to have origins dating back approximately 600 years, conveniently situated in the heart of the highly-regarded and well-served village of Ipplepen. Undoubtedly one of the village's most important period properties, the Grade II Listed house sits on an impressive plot, which is predominantly level and fully enclosed by ancient stone walls. The wide expanse of well-kept lawn is big enough for a large garden party and a paved terrace adjoining the rear provides excellent external family and entertaining spaces. To one side, a private driveway provides plenty of parking and access to a barn-style double garage. There is also a stone built store which has planning permission for conversion to ancillary accommodation dated 18/Nov/22. Teignbridge Council Planning ref 22/00902/lbc.
Ipplepen is a lovely working village, which offers a vibrant, active community with many clubs and societies. Within an easy walk is a small supermarket, church, well-respected public house/restaurant, park, health centre and primary school. The market town of Newton Abbot is conveniently located approximately four miles away, with its mainline rail link to London and excellent selection of shops, communication links and other amenities. The ancient castle town of Totnes is just five miles distance, it sits on the banks of the River Dart and has a famously bohemian atmosphere along with many unique shops. This location also offers easy access to Torbay, where you can find Torquay's chic marina, fabulous coastline, Brixham's working harbour, Torbay hospital and all the other benefits of the English Riviera.
Accommodation
Stepping inside, the beautifully-presented accommodation is full of light and seamlessly blends modern convenience with character features including: Decorative plasterwork in the principal bedroom commemorating King William III of England, Inglenook fireplaces fitted with log-effect gas stoves, beamed ceilings and a window seat. The living space is flexible with separate lounge and dining room and a third reception currently provides a sitting/breakfast room. The kitchen is well fitted with plenty of work space and integrated appliances and has double-aspect windows providing plenty of light. There is also a generously sized utility room with handy WC off, and doors opening to both the rear garden and the driveway.
On the first floor, a long landing with deep-silled window provides access to 5 bedrooms, one currently used as a study, and an up-to-the-minute family bathroom. This has a contemporary white suite comprising a bath and separate shower cabinet. The principal bedroom has a lobby area with fitted cupboard and a spacious, recently re-fitted en-suite shower room with vanity basin and WC.
